How to create a make file in visual studio 2005- C#

[TJS4u]

Hello all, In VisualStudio 6.0, there's an Export Makefile menu item that creates a makefile for the project. Is there any way to achieve this in VS.Net 2005? Basically, I need a command-line build script for my project and was wondering if there's an automated way to generate it for an existing VS.Net project. Thks & Rgds T J S

.net using a build system called MSBuild[^]. The project file itself is actually the MSBuild script. (Open it up in notepad and you'll see the xml style build script). You can run msbuild directly from the commend line. Something like

MSBuild /target:Debug myproject.csproj
